So what do you all think about this game? Interesting matchups to me. More so if Goldman, Darby, and Smith are able to go 100%.

I think the 3.5 weeks off to prepare for their offense is the best case scenario. Much better than possibly winning 1st round and only having a week or so. Hopefully everyone can come in healed up and we can be the most healthy we've been in a long time. Very important to set the edges and force things horizontally. Oregon hasn't played a team that can match its speed I don't think.

Watching these 2 QBs should be a doozy. I think Oregon's offense will get theirs in chunks. We just have to come up big at crucial times like we have all year.

Key is no turnovers for us, especially in the 1st half.

The layoff helps FSU more than anything. Oregon is a team that was easily gaining momentum with each week, since the early loss to Arizona, and there's no doubt the having to sit and wait affects offensive rhythm. It might be too old of an example, but I'm reminded of the 2010 BCS title game against Auburn, when Chip Kelly's offense just didn't look the same after the dreadful, 3-week wait after conference championship week.

As for the Noles, a layoff should do much to affect the team that will be down by three scores at halftime and sure as shit, rallying back through the 4th quarter.

What ultimately makes Oregon's offense so lethal is the inside zone read. Too much attention and they're getting to the outside. Not enough attention and they'll kill you between the hashes. Not only is Jimbo a defensive guru, but his unit will be the most physical defense the Ducks have seen to date.

Look for the Noles to win the line of scrimmage, slow the Ducks' roll, and win a tight one.

The Oregon equipment team doing a fine job applying the very large vagina to the backs of each helmet:

Honestly, I think Oregon is going to win this unless our offenses plays the whole game. We cannot afford to go down by 2 scores to this team. I've also thought we were going to lose the last like 4 games.

That said, Oregon hasn't really faced a good passing defense. I think all of Oregon's pass defense is all lower than average except for one (Arizona), so there is a chance.
